What I'm looking for

I seek backend or full-stack roles where I can build scalable APIs, improve performance, work with cloud deployments, and collaborate in cross-functional teams.

I am a motivated software developer with experience building backend and full-stack web applications across asset management, e-commerce, and enterprise systems. I focus on secure, scalable RESTful APIs using Node.js and Express, and I implement authentication flows including JWT and OTP-based mechanisms.

I have delivered production systems deployed on AWS (EC2, S3) and other hosts, improved performance (for example, reducing response time by 20% through PostgreSQL indexing and batch optimization), and integrated payment and CMS solutions for non-technical clients. My projects include unified management systems with RBAC and modular backends and an e-commerce platform with Razorpay integration.

I collaborate effectively across teams, emphasize maintainable architecture and automation, and continuously apply DevOps and cloud practices to ensure reliability and uptime. I'm driven to build pragmatic, performant systems that enable business outcomes.
